I can't link but on twitter there's a post from @RTEone with a snippet of an interview with Byrne - in contrast to his friend Liam Neeson stating #metoo has gone too far/is a witch hunt, Byrne states it's not gone far enough.

You can see the interviewer trying to couch the question (to me) in a way that is leaning towards Neeson's position but Byrne firmly disagrees.

He looks to be a good allySmile seeing this small snippet.

Was he on the Late Late? Wouldn’t surprise me if Tubridy was trying to lead him.

Me too Judas, my heart sank and then cheered again!

I lived near his sister when I lived in Ireland. There was a bit of a scandal involving an affair with the actress Ellen Barkin, whom he left his partner of ten years for.

Apparently he has left her now and is a dad again at 67 with someone much younger apparently.

Oh thank god for that! Thought you were going to say the opposite. Blimmin loved him since Gothic.

I am so glad this was a positive story.

I was hoping this would be a positive story. I like him too. Good for him
